LANCASTER / PENNSYLVANIA

This morning Darian, Danny, Laura, and I were bored so we decided that we

would all go on a hike at Blue Ridge Mountain. All of us went home, got our

hiking equipment, and packed a lunch. We then met at my house. I drove all of

us up to Blue Ridge Mountain. We got there in a half hour it was around 10:30

AM.

It was probably one of the most beautiful days we had all year, it was

around seventy to seventy five degrees and there was barely any humidity. Even

though we have all four seasons and varied amounts of precipitation throughout

the year it felt like it was either a scorching humid summer day or it was a

freezing snowy winter day. It felt like we only had two seasons all year either

summer or winter.

When we stepped out of the car we could see and hear birds singing. We

could also smell, hear, and see the beautiful trees swaying in the gentle breeze.

car.

We all got our gear out of the car and walked over to the trails. We had

to decide what trail to take. We had three choices the first trail was half a

mile long, the second trail was two miles long, and the third trail was four

miles long. Since it was such a beautiful day we all decided to take the third

trail that was four miles long.

We started hiking around 11:00 AM. While we were hiking we heard wings

flapping, we all turned and saw a robin fly towards the ground, pick up a worm,

and feed it to her babies. Everyone thought that it was cute. After, we

watched the robin for a while we continued hiking until 12:30 PM.

Everyone was hungry so we decided to find a spot to eat our lunches. We

found a perfect spot, it had a great view, a patch of beautiful dandelions, and

a big beautiful maple tree to sit under.

sitting next to during lunch.

We all sat down on the big blanket that we had brought along and ate our

lunches. Laura went over and picked a dandelion and smelled it. We talked for

a while and admired how big and beautiful the Blue Ridge Mountain was. We

finished having lunch around 1:30 PM. We then started hiking again. As we were

hiking we heard a splashing noise, we could not really identify what it was. We

walked toward the noise and encountered some ruff terrain. We finally found

what we have been hearing. It was several bears It was several bears trying to

catch fish in a stream. One of the bears caught a fish and all of the other

bears ran over to see if they could get some but it was to late because the bear

had already devoured the fish.

We decided to move on and not interfere with the bears because that is

not a situation we wanted to be in. As we moved on we saw a rattlesnake eat a

mouse. We were about fifty feet away though because if he were to bite one of

us on top of this mountain with nobody to help us our chances of survival were

pretty low. As we walked on we saw a nest of baby rattlesnakes we looked at

them from a safe distance when all of a sudden the mother of the rattlesnakes

shot out from behind a rock. We all ran for our lives! We ran for a good five

minutes before the rattlesnake stopped chasing us. Nobody was bit thank god.

But we had a big problem we were totally lost! We had traveled pretty

far off the trail while the rattlesnake was chasing us. We all decided to

travel down the mountain because it seemed to be the most logical way because we

hiked up the mountain so if we hiked down the mountain we would probably make it

to the car.

We started to make our way down the mountain. As we were making our way

down the mountain Laura tripped and rolled down the mountain about ten feet. We

all ran over to her and discovered she had broke her leg. Darian and I went to

find some branches so we could make a splint for Laura?s leg. We found some

branches and went back over to Danny and Laura. We assembled a splint and put

it on Laura?s leg. It was just strong enough for her to be able to walk.

So we continued making our way down the mountain and luckily we found a

compass! We knew we had to travel north because that was the way the trail

traveled. So we started to hike north.

We eventually made our way back to the trail. We saw some other people

that were hiking. They saw we needed help and they gladly provided us with

their assistance. They helped us get back to my car.

I got in my car and drove to the nearest phone. I called an ambulance

and drove back to the mountain. We all waited for the ambulance to come. When

the ambulance arrived they put Laura in the back and took her off to the

hospital. All of us watched the ambulance drive off into the sunset.
